The color is fair with chestnut tonalities. In the aroma, one can find dry figs, nuts, and apricots. It has good concentration and enormous complexity. Casa De Santa Eufemia 20 Year Tawny Port NV is a rich and complex tawny port that has been aged in wood for 20 years. It offers intense flavors of roasted hazelnuts, sultanas, toffee, and coffee notes. The wine has a medium-dry house style, making it drier than many other tawny ports. It pairs well with strong cheeses, berry desserts, and anything with vanilla and caramel flavors.
